Trivell Donte’ Lamar Richardson, a 40-year-old Black man from North Charleston, was found unresponsive on the floor of a residence on Iron Street in the early morning hours of December 4, 2024, having sustained multiple gunshot wounds. A call came in about 3:43 a.m.; paramedics transported him to the Medical University of South Carolina, where he was pronounced dead at 4:35 a.m.

The North Charleston Police Department opened a homicide investigation and kept the case active for several weeks without naming a suspect. On December 27, 2024, police and the U.S. Marshals located and arrested an individual who was charged with murder and was being held at the Al Cannon Detention Center in Charleston County as the investigation continued.

If anyone has information about Richardson, the Iron Street scene that night, or the arrest on December 27, please come forward to assist investigators.
